THE RABBIT PEST.

The Great Drives Instituted by the Pluto
Indians in Former Years.
In Nevada and California we have
not only the common grey species OF
rabbits, but also the large jack rabbit
and the even larger white hare These
are all natives of the country. They
have probably been here for ages and
are doubtless as prolific as are the rab-
bits in Australia; therefore the whole
country should, have been swarming
with them when first visited by the
whites had there not been something
to keep them down. They were prob
ably kept within bounds here by the
wolves, wildcats, lynxes and other
carniverous animals. The Australians
introduced the rabbits no longer ago
than 1860 for the purpose of sport, and
fine sport they have had with them.
They should now plant their land
with wolves and wildcats and should
cultivate owls and hawks. It is proba-
BILE, however, that, owing to the gen.
eral prevalence of the sheep industry,
the wolf cure would be about as bad as
the disease. In former times our Piute
Indians slaughtered immense numbers
of rabbits. Before the coming of the
whites they almost lived on rabbits,
and all their cloaks and sleeping robes
were made of the skins of the animals.
They instituted rabbit drives, and at
those round-ups of the long-eared cat
tie swept into nets spread for the pur-
pose all the rabbits of large area of
country. In Australia much might be
done by means of similar drives or cir
cular hunts but for the fact that the
small gray rabbit is burrowing AMI
NAL, and pops into its hole with about
as much celebrity as the prairie dog

BUTTER IN THE ORIENT.
The Inferior Dairy Products Made by
the Arabs and Syrians.


the Arabs and Syrians.
Butter and cheese are frequently
mentioned in the Bible, and the Arabs
and Syrians probably follow the old
Hebrew style of dairy manufacture.
The milk for butter making is put into
a copper pan, placed over slow fire,
adding small quantity Of sour milk,
or the dried entrails Of lamb. After
the milk is warmed through, and be-
gins to curdle, it is poured into a goat
skin bag, which is then tied to one Of
the tent poles, and kept constantly in
motion for two hours; the butter then
separates from the fluid part, and is
placed by itself in. another skin. In
two days after, it is again put into a
pan and subjected to the action of a
slow fire, with the addition Of bomrgoul
(wheat boiled with leaven, and dried in
the sun, J and allowed to boil for some
time, during which it is carefully
skinned. The bourgoul precipitates
all the cheesy matter, and the butter
then remains quite clear above. This
butter is of white color, and pos
sesses a favor not at all relished by
Americans or Europeans, or, indeed,
by any one accustomed to the use of
butter made from cows milk churned
in the usual way. s,1t.s. :aIsf.4
The cheese now made in Palestine is
avery inferior article. The milk is
curdled either by sour buttermilk OF a
decoction of the great-headed thistles,
or wild artichoke. The curd is then
put into small baskets and pressed. 1t
is excessively sailed, and when the
cheese is made it appears in the form
of small, round, white cakes, without
rind, which soon become hard and dry
throughout. At some of the Connec-
ticut diaries excellent limitations are
made of Brie, Neufchatel and other
cheeses, but / have never seen any
imitation of the hard, rancid. bad
tasting cheese Of Palestine.-Boston

WISDOM OF THE sAGEs.

Bob Burdette Tells How q v1nainous
Hawk Tried to Ndislead Him.
What grand thing it must be to
fave good, thorough education, and
know all about astronomy and natural
history and phlebotomy and all those
things. A painful sense of my own
general ignorance always makes me
feel very i'll at ease in the presence Of
learned people. Not a great while
ago, two months, perhaps, I was writ
ing, and happening to glance out OF
my window, saw a hawk make a swoop
and catch a poor little English spar
row. The robber, with great in
science, flew into pine tree close to
my window and began his breakfast.
I called the Prince, and we watched the
hawk devour the little bird. He held
the sparrow on the limb of the tree
with his talons, and tore off bite after
bite with his great beak. He did not
pluck feather before eating. Now
and then, when feather would come
away with shred Of meat, the hawk
shock it from his beak, but went right
on with his meal. He didn't swallow any
feathers, but beyond that he paid not
the slightest attention to them, simply
shaking them off his beak when they
got in his way. Half an hour later ]
read in most excellent paper the
statement By learned ornithologist
and an old hunter that ''the hawk
never begins devouring a bird until he
has first carefully plucked every feather
out of it, Now if I hadn't read that,
yop see how ignorant I would have
been of simple fact in natural history!
I believe that villain of a hawk acted
as he did on purpose to mislead me.
But, thanks to the learned man, he
failed. Am going to take the word
of miserable, ignorant hawk against
that of great ornithologist? Not I.
I may not know much, but I trow that
wot learned orpithologist kens more
about hawks than any hawk that ever
bolted q feather. Burdette, IN Brooklyn

An Innocent Life Sacrificed to the Mo1Och
of Circumstanrial Evidence.

of CircumstanIial Evidence.
No matter how strong may be every
ink in chain of circumstantial evil
lence there is always a doubt, q lack of
certainty, that should weaken it and
cause us to distrust it. remember
story my grandfather used to tell of a
Ease in which an innocent life was
sacrificed for a guilty person. A boy
On farm, for some ,misdemeanor, was
sentenced by his father, a stern man,
with an eye to. saving a half price
ticket, to be deprived of his annual cir
gus privilege, and, in addition, he was
10 hoe so many rows of corn while the
rest of the family took in the lady's
pad act, the horseback riding of Jack
Robinson, the club that killed Captain
Cook and other attractions of the great
moral show. The boy watched the
wagon drive away, with tears in his
eyes, and then he went at his corn rows
with determination to make a. short
crop, if it could be worked without
detection. But he grew hungry
after awhile and went into the house
and investigated the pantry. There
were seven pies-it was an American
household seven blackberry pies,
baked for Sunday. The boy, who was
not feeling very well himself, soon
placed his person anterior to six of the
pies, but paused thoughtfully, and with
keen regret midway on the seventh.
Onc-half of that he left. He then
caught the family cat, thrust her nose
and feet into the remains of the pie,
and dropped her on the clean, white
sanded floor of the pantry that she
might track around on it. Then he
went back to his corn rows. Evening
brought the family home. The boy
saw them climb joyously out of the big
wagon. He noted how the over-ripe
apples fell from the trees when his sis
ter jumped over the side and lighted
dat-footed on the ground. He saw his
father let himself down over the double
trees and get himself kicked twice by
the roam colt. He saw his mother
waiting patiently until somebody had
time and inclination to take the baby.
He saw his grandmother perch herself
on the hub of the hind wheel on one
foot, while she made vague, circum-
ferential, wandering excursions for
the wide, wide world with the other.
He saw his brothers let themselves
down over the tail gate and sneak
away to avoid doing any work. At
last the wagon was empty, and there
were visible signs of excitement about
the house. ..The raid is discovered"
said the boy, cutting the roots of a
healthy stalk of corn and carefully
killing up a vigorous lance weed.
Presently he saw his father come out
Of the house with the gun over his
shoulder and the cat under his arm.
..The culprit is arrested calmly re-
marked the young robber, as he
leaned thoughtfully upon his hoe, and
watched his father disappear behind
the barn. The sharp report of gun
rang out upon the quiet of the sunset
hour. ''There," said the boy, with
the confident expression Of one who
knows what he is talking about, ''there
goes another victim to circumstantial
evidence. "-Burdette, On Brooklyn
